TOWN 0F COBOURG TO SEPARATE FROM UNITED COUNTIES County Town Presents Bull to Ontario Legislature te With- draw from Counties Even at the cost of hosing its posi- tion as counties own, held for near- ly a century, Coboung's town council at a speclal meeting last week unan- imoushy voted Vo sepanate f nom the united counties of Northumberland and Durham. Figures presented by A. W. Young, town treasuren. backed by local fin- ancial experts, indicate that Cobourg lwill save $25,088.87 a year i taxes Iby becoming a sepanated town. Ac- jtion was forced council members point out by the f act that Cobourg's assessment for counties purposes was raised by Judge L. V. O'Connor, on appeal f nom counties council revalu- aion fnom $1,600,729 Vo $4,905,227.08 Application wUll be made o the Ontario Legisature, now sitting, asking that special egislation be passed which will permit Coboung's separation fnom the counties. The motion Vo separate fromn the counties was made by Councillor Morris Both, chairman o! the fin- ance commlttee, who is leading a movement in Eastern Ontario Vo fos- ter establishmnent of independent theatres that wiil feature British talking pictunes and films. Preparlng the bill for the legisla- tune is In the hands o!fP. M. Field, K. C., town solicitor, and the bill wilh be pnesented 'by F. J. McArthur, M.P.P., local member, who is also a new member o! the pivate buils comn- mittee. Port Hope Is alneady makig a bid for the honor of being the county town in the event o! this bill pass- ing the legislature. As yet Bowman- ville has noV made a move in this direction, but it would appear they have as much right Vo have the county offices hene as in Port Hope. Perhaps our own counicil has this question in mind and realizes what the movlng o! the Counties' offices Vo Bowmanville would mean. One tbing it would mean would be in- cneased population and the own would pnobably be the scene o! much building activlty if! the offices were removed Vo Bowmanville. ADVERTISING BY RADIO The average housebold possessing a radio set is being rapidly fed up with advertising by air-hot air for the most part. lI the present pos- ture of affairs it would nequire the services o! a switch-board operator o shif t from point to point on the dial Vo geV enough wortb-while en- tertainment to warrant use of leis- ure time i this way. It's no bettei on Sîînday either. Russia is manag- ing Vo put that day in the discard- the good old United States o! Amer- ica is doing its bit in the samne dir- ection, i 50 far as high-pressure . publicity by radio is concerned dur- ing the one day in the oo-heavy week when the mlnds of overwrought men and women, and cbildren too nieed more than ever before, ne- reation uncoiinected with so-callec? business".

In the monning passengers for Glasgow disembanked. We then lef t for Belfast. The scen- ery as we sailed down the Clyde was very beautiful. On the morning of December 13th we arrived i Liver- pool. Liverpool is just as busy as ever. Ships of ail descriptions were moving about or at anchor. 0f course, it was raining. It took about two hours to get ashore there is so nuch ned tape to go through, such as immigration of- ficiais, customs, baggage, etc. I ar- rived home about 1 p. m. Saturday, December l3th. The following Tuesday I caught the train known as the "Flying Scotsman" for London. 1V was a f ast train and compared favounably with any we have. It was radio equipped and of the central corridor type. I spent three days in London and neyer crammed so much into s0 short a time before. Working Vo schedule, and alded by London taxi- men, I saw the British Museumn, St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Ab- bey, Houses of Parliament, Tussaud's Waxworks, Canada House, Ontario Government Bldg., Tower of London, London Bridge. I was also into Self- ridge's and Harrod's stores. lI the evenings we managed to attend the Coliseum and His Majesty's Theatre. Saw Parilament in Session Canada House, by the way, 15 Can- ada's Headquarters i Great Britain, and is a very substantial and mod- ern building. 1V would take too much space o describe each one of these. Suffice it to say they were Vo me at any rate ahi that I have heard they were. Possibly the most in- pressive hour spent was an hour in the House of Commons in the Strangers' Gallery, while Parliament was i session. The Unknown Sol- dire's Tomb in Westminster Abbey wlll always nemain i my memory, too. It Is a plain, simple slab. but iV means a great deal. I also saw the Cenotaph, Horse Guards' Parade, The Admlralty, Government Build- ing, No. 1 Downing St., St. James' Palace, where the Prince of Wales lives. IV was here I saw the room where the Indian Conference was in progress. I also saw Buckingham Palace, the London home of the King. Lots of Fog While in London I also experlenc- ed one of the worst f ogs they have had li fllty years. At noon iV was exactly like midnight. Without any exaggeration at ail London is a big clty. Traffic is very dense. In the more congested parts street cars have been scrapped and busses sub- stltuted. There are thousands of busses in London. There seems Vo be one passing every second. As it was Just before Xmas aIl the stores wene crowded and everybody seemed o be dolng a rushing busi- ness. IMost of the balance of my time Iwas spent i vislting in Nottingham, the centre of England's lace indus- try; Doncaster, noted for its race course; Leeds, Bradford, Manchester, Otley and Halifax. England bas a very efficient trans- portation system. Busses now run Vo ail parts at reasonable rates, anid getting from one place Vo another in a minimum of time is a compara- tively simple matter. There are noV aâ many automobiles there as here. due I believe Vo the mucb bigher cost of operation. Li- censes are issued on a basis of $5.00 per horse power. Therc is no winter freeze-up there and on January 2nd farmers could be seen plougbing and worklng on the land. Easy to Get Foreign Stations Radios (wireless sets as they cal them) are .Iust as popular as here. Ahl broadacsting is controlled hrough the Brtish Broadcasting Co., who broadcast hrough three or four stations situated in different parts of the British Isles. I heard the New Year brought in by Big Ben and the Chimes f rom St. Paul's Cathedral. London. IV was amusing Vo hear the different foreign stations. In one evening we heard Paris, France; Toulouse, France; Madrid, Spain, Vienna, Austria; Berlin, Ger- many;, Prague, Czechoslovakla, and Karldenburg, Sweden.
